Simulation of gaseous diffusion in partially saturated porous media under variable gravity with lattice Boltzmann methods.
Liquid distributions in unsaturated porous media under different gravitational accelerations and corresponding macroscopic gaseous diffusion coefficients were investigated to enhance understanding of plant growth conditions in microgravity. We used a single-component, multiphase lattice Boltzmann code to simulate liquid configurations in two-dimensional porous media at varying water contents fo...
متن کاملWaves in Partially Saturated Porous Media
E orts to extend the theory of poroelasticity to semilinear and nonlinear elastic response, to partially saturated pores, to inhomogeneous solid frame materials, and to viscous losses due to localized ow e ects are summarized. The prospects for a comprehensive theory of wave propagation in partially saturated porous media and the reasons for needing such a theory are also discussed. The main re...
متن کاملMacroscale lattice‐Boltzmann methods for low Peclet number solute and heat transport in heterogeneous porous media
[1] This paper introduces new methods for simulating subsurface solute and heat transport in heterogeneous media using large‐scale lattice‐Boltzmann models capable of representing both macroscopically averaged porous media and open channel flows. Previous examples of macroscopically averaged lattice‐Boltzmann models for solute and heat transport are only applicable to homogeneous media. Here, w...
متن کاملSolute transport during cyclic flow in saturated porous media
We consider materials with large pores interconnected by thin long channels saturated with an incompressible fluid. In the absence of fluid flow, solute transport in the porous network is diffusion controlled, however, solute transport can be enhanced when the porous network is subjected to a cyclic flow with zero time average velocity. We develop a mathematical model to analyze this physical p...
متن کاملLinking drainage front morphology with gaseous diffusion in unsaturated porous media: a lattice Boltzmann study.
The effect of drainage front morphology on gaseous diffusion through partially saturated porous media is analyzed using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Flow regimes for immiscible displacement in porous media have been characterized as stable displacement, capillary fingering, and viscous fingering. The dominance of a flow regime is associated with the relative magnitudes of gravity, viscou...
